Scorpio
Her marble tears run down her marble face.A stranger is someone who has no handkerchief.Who has no words to say.Whose shadow mind is burningas he sits watching her handsand thinks how rare!to see a Romantalkwith no gestures at all.
Anne Carson
The debt you carry that has nothing to do with money is the kind that compounds in silence, growing heavier each time you choose not to mention it. You know exactly what you owe and to whom, but the currency is something that cannot be counted or transferred through any system designed for fairness. The person who extended this to you may not even remember doing it, which makes the weight entirely yours to hold. What you keep to yourself about this obligation is not shame but the recognition that some forms of owing cannot survive being spoken aloud, even to yourself.
